由于冷却技术和合金非晶形成能力的限制, 实验室难以得到大块非晶, 而纳米液滴的快速冷却要相对容易, 因此纳米液滴的模拟研究更容易得到实验的验证. 本文运用分子动力学方法, 模拟不同尺寸的Cu64Zr36纳米液滴在1.0 × 1012 K/s冷却速率下的凝固过程, 并采用平均原子能量、双体分布函数、三维可视化和最大标准团簇分析等方法分析其微观结构的演化. 对能量曲线和微观结构短程序特征长度的统计分析表明, 所有纳米液滴的凝固过程都经历了液-液相变和液-固相变, 最后形成了非晶态纳米颗粒. 拓扑密堆(topologically close-packed, TCP)结构的演化过程能充分体现纳米液滴两次相变的基本特征, 但二十面体不能. 从TCP团簇的角度, 纳米液滴的整个凝固过程可以分为坯胎、聚集、长大和粗化4个阶段. TCP结构能体现出非晶纳米液滴和颗粒的基本结构特征, 对于完善凝固理论具有重要意义.It is difficult to obtain bulk amorphous alloys experimentally due to the limitation of cooling technology and the ability to form amorphous alloy. However, the rapid cooling of nano-droplets is relatively easy, so the simulation research of nano-droplets is easier to verify experimentally. In this work, the molecular dynamics simulation for the rapid cooling of Cu64Zr36 nano-droplets of different sizes is conducted at a cooling rate of 1.0 × 1012 K/s, and the evolution of microstructure is analyzed in terms of the average potential energy, the pair distribution function, the three-dimensional visualization, and the largest standard cluster analysis. The analysis of the energy curves and the characteristic length for short-range-ordered microstructure show that the solidification process for all nano-droplets undergoes liquid-liquid transition and liquid-solid transition, and finally forms amorphous nanoparticles. Comparing with the icosahedron, the evolution of the topologically close-packed (TCP) structures can reflect the basic characteristics of phase transitions effectively. Based on the evolution of TCP clusters, the entire solidification process of nano-droplets can be divided into four stages: embryo, aggregation, growth and coarsening. The TCP structure embodies the basic structural characteristics of amorphous nano-droplets and particles, which is of great significance in perfecting the solidification theory.
